I'm here because I'm here from idksterlin's videos about the bombing of Hiroshima since he said that survivors said that those who were too close to the blast of the bomb but too far to die immediately and were unfortunate enough to survive were turned into what they called "Ant-walking Alligator people" their bodies covered in 3rd degree burns, some with shards of glass sticking out of their now burnt and leathery skin (their skin resembling alligator skin) with red holes in their faces indicating mouths. They walked around aimlessly, and while some might think they'd be in agonizing pain and screaming, they weren't because their nerves would be so burnt and damaged from the bomb's heat and blast that their pain receptors wouldn't be able to send pain signals to the brain, and they couldn't scream either due to their vocals cords being ruined by the bomb's effects. Instead of screaming, survivors said they uttered a constant murmur, like locusts on a midsummer night.

@Thrive-Off-Grid2 жыл бұрын
I didnt have good dry fuel. However a gasifier does not produce a Blue flare. Here in this video indeed that was dirty gas but that JD dont care that thing drank tar and loved it. LOL But back to the flare. The H2 produced from any gasifier is not pure, generally H2 will burn orange. In a lab with a pure grade of H2 you will see a pale blue but even with electrolysis Ive never seen it burn blue it always burned an orange color. A good indicator that you are making lots of H2 is the flare may look fluffy, this is water / steam reforming as it oxidizes. CO from a gasifier will burn a brilliant blue color and its beautiful to see. But this is weak gas. CH4 will give the flare a violet / pink color. So what you really want to see is a blue base at the flare with violet / pink color with some faint orange. (not like in the video) Even our charcoal systems with water cracking dont produce a blue flare and that gas is clean. These new machines dont even leave any residue at the carb.
